Yes, artichokes are delicious! I like to pull the outer leaves between my clenched teeth to remove all the soft flesh. The inner leaves and the heart just melt in my mouth! I prefer a dip with vinegar or lemon juice to give it a tang.
ReplyDeleteI have had artichoke dip but have never had an actual artichoke. I should try one!
ReplyDeleteNever knew that, but then yeah, never eat them either
ReplyDeleteMmmm love artichokes! I have some dip with them in the fridge right now! Yum! I don't think I've ever seen them flower but have seen them growing in real life. Would love to be able to grow them here.
ReplyDeleteTHAT I didn't know.
ReplyDeleteGorilla- That how I eat the leaves too. But the center is so good with melted butter.
ReplyDeleteKeith- You should!
Pat- They're good.
Anna- Me too.
Blue Grumpster- Learn something new today. :)
makes sense, though I didn't know that.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. They are quite lovely. And gorgeous flowers to boot :)
